Sobre este libro

"A fool with a heart and no sense is just as unhappy as a fool with sense and no heart." First published serially in 1868–1869, the book's title, The Idiot, is an ironic reference to the central character of the novel, Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin, a young prince whose goodness, open-hearted simplicity, and guilelessness lead many of the more worldly characters he encounters to mistakenly assume that he lacks intelligence and insight. As he becomes entangled with two women, the tormented Nastasya Filippovna and the spirited Aglaya Yepanchina, Myshkin's honesty, goodness, and integrity collide with jealousy, greed, and the darker impulses of those around him. As the novel spirals toward one of Dostoevsky's most haunting conclusions, we're shown that in a corrupt world, innocence isn't just misunderstood… it can be dangerous. Exploring themes of compassion, moral idealism, mental illness, and the tragic difficulty of living ethically in a world that rewards the opposite, The Idiot is the story of a truly good man ultimately destroyed by the people he is trying to save. Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer renowned for his profound explorations of psychology, morality, and the human condition. Born in Moscow, his tumultuous life was marked by early literary success and followed by arrest and exile due to his radical political activities. He is widely regarded as one of the world's finest novelists, penning classics that include Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. His work has had an immense influence on 20th-century fiction and his ideas have profoundly shaped literary modernism, existentialism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism
